Let's review. In the past thirteen days;
- Border crossings are down 94% after Trump declared a national emergency and sent US troops to the southern US Border
- Special Envoy Ric Grenell flew down to oil-rich Venezuela, got 6 hostages freed (that Biden didn't even care to check up on), and convinced Maduro to accept tens of thousands of migrants we're about to deport.
- Trump halted almost all foreign aid for 90 days, including to Ukraine, while each program undergoes review to make sure they align with the new agenda.
- Elon Musk's DOGE descended upon the US Treasury and revealed that we've been 'auto paying' all sorts of bad actors, including terrorist groups. DOGE then kicked the door down at Deep State slush fund USAID, where employees were placed on paid leave last week for trying to circumvent Trump's orders, causing a massive Democrat freakout.
- Trump just slapped tariffs on China, Canada and Mexico for failing to control the flow of illegal immigration and fentanyl.
- Secretary of State Marco Rubio sent a worldwide cable announcing the end of DEI policies within State, prioritizing American interests, and told his Chinese counterpart that America is done kowtowing.
Comment: Here the EU leaders are compared to "something" that can wag a tail. There is much truth in this description.
For another accurate evaluation, recall that Victoria Nuland, the US 25th Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs, in 2014 became know for her: "F**k the EU". It also described the overall relationship, as it was then rather well.
If Being a US 'ally' means silently watching your own destruction how many leaders in the EU understand that, not to mention resist it?
